So I have a bunch of leftover crap from reimage repair on my computer that got left over when I uninstalled it. I don't even remember why I downloaded it (stupid decision). Anyway, I tried using hitmanpro to clean up the leftovers (and it found them) but I guess my one-time trial has already been used previously and it won't let me do it again without purchasing it. Is there another good, safe, free program I can use that does the same thing? Thanks

herdprotect and zemana antimalware (the last one is a copy of hitman pro)

well I just downloaded and ran the zemana but it didn't pull up anything but tracking cookies. all of the reimage repair junk that hitmanpro found didn't show up with zemana...

EDIT: it also failed to delete all the cookies that it pulled up, lol

Thhe engines on zemana and hitman pro are diferent. And it doesnt delete the cookies if you have your browsers open

hmm, well now i have all the traces of hitmanpro left behind + all the ones from zemana since i can't manually uninstall either one. so now I need a program that gets rid of hitmanpro PLUS zemana since that didn't work haha

iobit uninstaller or revo uninstaller

 

[Zimboombafoo]

i have iobit, neither hitmanpro or zemana show up on any of the uninstall lists

because they are portable. You just need to delete the exe

 

[Zimboombafoo]

so you mean like search for hitmanpro.exe and then delete and empty recycle bin?

To uninstall HitmanPro you can follow the below instructions:

Spoiler: Uninstall Hitman Pro

1. Open up the control panel either by searching for it on the Windows search or using the Start Menu.
2. To the left of the Control Panel, the last item should have a subheading, labelled as "Programs". Below that, should have a link labelled "Uninstall a program". Click that.
3. The window should change and you should now have a window with a box (also known as a "ListView") displaying installed applications on your system. Find HitmanPro in the list (or the program you would like to uninstall) and select it.
4. Right click the selected item (HitmanPro in this case) and choose "Uninstall".
5. HitmanPro should uninstall itself and then the list should refresh - HitmanPro should then be removed from the list of installed applications.

Thanks.

thank you, but hitmanpro does not show up on the uninstall list. nor does zemana...

You can use Revo uninstaller pro and even if the programs don't show on the uninstall list you can use Forced Uninstall and just type the name of the program on the second bar and it will find all leftover files and then you can delete them
I hope i have helped
Kind regards Tony

if the software installed i would try to find the folder it is in
and run the uninstaller from there first before using uninstallers

like if the program installed in to the c: drive go in to the program files
and see if you can find the program there and use the uninstaller that came
with the software from there

if the software is not installed and is portable just delete the folder

Hitman Pro and Zemana Anti Malware are both portable and by default (if you didn't change the configuration) it will only scan only. Just delete the download file where you placed it.

I would say in this case, Malwarebytes free would be your best bet, download it and run a custom scan, and include all areas you wish to cover.
